There is no difference between 2 stroke oil and 2 cycle oil. They are the identical product but are called different names. The 2 stroke refers to the engine type that the oil can be used in.

Does your lawn mower require 2 cycle engine oil?

If it is a 2-stroke engine, 2-cycle engine oil is added to the gasoline. If the engine is 4-stroke, regular 30W motor oil is used. To tell if your engine is 2-stroke or 4-stroke, look for a spout where oil is poured into the engine. If there is no spout, then the engine is 2-stroke and 2-cycle oil must be added to the gasoline.
